Dr. Dana Kline is a psychologist and writer based in Los Angeles, California. Dr. Kline holds a PhD in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Depth Psychology and a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology. Dr. Kline has over a decade of clinical experience providing individual, group and family psychotherapy in private practice, community mental health, inpatient/outpatient treatment centers and education settings. Her doctoral training at the Jung Institute and Wright Institute in Los Angeles has informed her psychoanalytic and imaginal approaches towards braving one’s interior life. Through a practical and relational conversation, Dr. Kline supports the unique process of unearthing avoidances, contradictions, ambivalence, and desires. This includes the treatment and discovery of the language of the unconscious in personal, historical, and systemic ruptures. Specializations include developmental and transitional life stages, mood and anxiety disorders, obsessional preoccupations, existential quandaries, interpersonal conflicts, and dreams analysis.
Dr. Kline’s writing practice incorporates critical theory, psychological perspectives, and inquiries towards the poetics of contemporary art. She has presented both nationally and internationally at colleges, universities, and conferences, including the International Forum for Psychoanalytic Education, the London Arts -Based Research Centre and Hauser + Wirth (upcoming). She has also contributed to various musical projects and performances over the past two decades playing flute.
